Is anyone else frustrated that they didn’t actually share any results? I feel like all we got was “these diets were hard”! I wanted to know the actual affect of them.

[purrpurrzeburr]

Maya's dad needs to be showcased in another video. He's funny!

[DonYelleandDiana]

i remember wanting my mom’s slimfast chocolate drinks and she was like “those aren’t for you they’re gross trust me” and my child self was like why do you drink it then...

[rachels]

Why do they never say if they lost any weight with these types of videos?

[icyguys]

I remember Slim fast in like 2009, my mom would drink them, they looked good af... they smelled so gross. (They were canned)

[jenna-rfor]

omggg those Texas Roadhouse rolls I don’t even know how she avoided those they’re so BOMB

I do Atkins. It's just a low card, high protein diet. Ive been doing it for a few months and Ive lost over 20lbs. It's not just eating granola bars😂

[IshanAli]

the 90os was the best decade....dont fight me

[fealubryne]

In the 2000s I did the Atkin's diet, and I actually loved it. I was technically too young to be doing it, but it was easy to figure out and follow, mostly just meat, carbs from veggies and occasionally fruit, and so on. I actually lost weight with it, too. In the end I found out a brain tumor was causing a bunch of medical issues, and two brain surgeries later and removal of both adrenal glands and I'm down to 115lbs without trying.

[normaruisgallardo]

I legit lost 9 lbs on the slims fast diet! I feel proud that I managed to get that far! 😁😁😁
*Update: I've lost another 4lbs! Thanks Slimfast!

[paradiceeraves]

Atkins diet works pretty well.. I lost a little over 50lbs in only a few months but it sucked because carbs are my favorite and I was always grumpy while I was on it lol

[nyxiamoon]

The biggest problem with fad diet items like Slimfast, like Maya was saying towards the end, is that there's no nutrition *education*. You're not learning which foods are healthy and which are not. And once you reach your goal weight (if you do) you'll think, ok I can stop drinking these shakes and everything will be great. You go back to eating crap again because you don't know how to eat any other way, and you gain all the weight back. Diets like Atkins, South Beach, etc actually train you to change your eating habits for life, not just for a week or a month.

[AstorReinhardt]

I was addicted to the french vanilla slim fast shakes...oh my god they were so good.

Part of me wants to just go buy some in the store to see if they taste as good as they used to...I really REALLY liked them.

[internetshaquille]

The worst part about the SlimFast plan was it suggested a healthy dinner like "chicken breast and steamed vegetables" like damn i finally get to eat real food and this is your suggestion?

[UtteMus]

Like what is the point if you are not gonna follow the instructions?? Just seems lazy and makes for a bad video

[missjessilla]

I have tried different diets in my day but no one of the stick. I found it hard to follow when you were eating out, or to know what to eat beside the shakes and bars. As a final attempt I joined the WeithWatchers this July and I've now lost 28lbs, in 24 weeks. The best decision I've ever made in my life! I only have 4lbs to go and then I've reached my goal weight. I am healthier, I've joined a gym, and I now have a support system that helps me and that will prevent me from going too extreme with my weight loss. If you guys need to try another diet I can highly recommend it.

[lforand]

Love Maya's dad....fix a flat lol

[kissycastaneda]

my mom did slim fast and dexitrim back in the 90’s. I do low carb now and I love it. for me it’s not a diet for losing weight but just to be healthy overall and feel good.

[jadamouzone]

did anyone else notice that maya got more of camera time in this video ? they barely let salorm explain her diet, and most of the experience was Maya’s time.
